So at the Lush I usually shop at, I pretty much always get a sample of a fresh face mask when I make a purchase. I was at a different store yesterday and asked for a sample of Catastrophe Cosmetic when I was checking out and the sales associate told me they're not allowed to sample them because they need to be refrigerated. Because someone could have a reaction to putting a moldy mask on their face and the store could be liable. But somehow if you pay for the full size that isn't an issue, I guess? Makes no sense.

Ok, I've given up on LUSH hair care. I tried for like half a year using Brazilliant, Godiva, Jungle, and R&B on my dry, curly, frizzy hair, and then one day last week I decided to use up the leftover Aveda Be Curly products (that I had been trying to transition away from with LUSH) and my hair looked and felt better than it had in months. My colleagues even asked if I'd gotten a haircut because my hair looked so much better.

So yeah, I had my qualms about Aveda because of parent company issues, but LUSH is really not doing my hair any favors. I still love their other products and have five different large bottles of shower gel in my shower and I really like Angels on Bare Skin for my face, but their hair products just don't work for me. Pity, because I love the smell of Brazilliant and Jungle, and LUSH is actually easier for me to get to than an Aveda Salon. But alas....

I needed a shampoo bar for my husband & some face cleanser, so I placed an order the other day & threw in the autumn leaf & the pumpkin bath bombs. I hardly ever buy the "fun" stuff for myself, just the stuff I really need, so I'm pretty excited!!

I had a glittery lotion bar years ago that I loved, but it made me break out like crazy. I'm going to be near the Cleveland Lush outlet next week... I'm considering getting a face/body scrub. Anyone tried the Dark Angel or others? Very tempted to go on a lip balm/color spending spree. I lost my hemp balm, and all of my re-gifted lipcolors are years old, which is kind of ewy.

The face stuff that I've used:Angels on Bare Skin- Smells lovely like lavender and fairy soft exfoliation. Good for all skin types.Buche de Noel- pretty much the same exact formula as the above but with a different scent (almond).Let the Good Times Roll- For dry skin. Smells delicious like caramel corn or something. A rougher exfoliation and not to be used every day for sensitive skin.Cup o' Coffee face mask/wash/thing- I'm really tempted to eat this one, but so far have resisted. It smells like chocolate and coffee and make my skin smell the same. It exfoliates similar to LtGTR, but a little gentler imo. Also good for all skin types I've been told.

Thanks Nimmy! I just came back to this thread to browse for mention of scrubs again because I forgot I posted this. Good thing it takes you to the oldest posts since your last I guess. "Let the good times roll" sounds like a win.

I got a Sugar Plum Fairy lip tint in the post-xmas half price sale. I really like it, though the colour is a lot more subtle than I thought it was going to be. I guess it's a seasonal item so I'm probably going to buy a couple more if they're not all gone.

I have one of the new lip balms, the key lime one. It reminds me of this key lime lip balm I had in grade 7 that I was obsessed with. In other words, it's great.
